The winger Chung-yong Lee was brought in to bolster Palace’s supply line.

Dyche added that he felt Palace caused his side more problems by changing their style, adding that he would have preferred to have faced the Eagles playing a system with three at the back as they have been early on this season.
Burnley has started the season well, having previously picked up four points in away games against Chelsea and Tottenham.
“We showed spirit”, De Boer said.
The 47-year-old had been at Selhurst Park for only 77 days after succeeding Sam Allardyce, and while that remains longer than the shortest term for any Premier League manager – Les Reed’s 40 days at Charlton – he oversaw two fewer games.
“I talked to all the potential managers and said: we need an evolution over a period of time”, Parish said.
“Although the margin of the defeat is small, I’m really disappointed with our performance”, Swans manager Paul Clement said. “I think it was quite dynamic”. I’m thinking that I have influence in what I can do with the squad, what I can do on the training ground with all the people around and that’s where I put my energy.

The former Ajax and Inter Milan head coach was only appointed by the south London club during the summer but he is under intense scrutiny after three defeats from three matches.
